StrataWrite 4.0 preview
From connected notes to a cited manuscript.
Version 4.0 brings notes and manuscripts into one library, with Recent and Map views to help you return to a draft or follow a research topic.
One library, connected ideas
Browse notes and manuscripts together. Follow backlinks and linked excerpts, organize by keywords, or use Quick Open to reach a document or research asset.
Evidence you can inspect
Gather passages from matching notes in the Evidence sheet, review source context, and copy material into your draft. Ask Library offers assistance grounded in your library on supported devices.
Citations and references while you write
Insert references from source notes, DOI lookups, or manual entries. Choose a citation style and keep an added reference section synchronized with your manuscript.
Figures, tables, and Word export
Reuse research assets, edit tables as a grid, and manage numbered mentions in your draft. Export Word or Markdown, or back up the library with citations and assets.
Inside StrataWrite 4.0
Your library and research assets, ready for the draft.
Browse notes and manuscripts together, then bring reusable tables and figures into the writing. Word goals, outlines, and Markdown preview support the work between first draft and export.
StrataRead 4.0 preview
Find the passage behind the idea.
The upcoming StrataRead 4.0 brings full-text PDF search, cited evidence, and richer library tools to the reading side of your research.
Search across sources
Combine indexed PDF text with author, year, title, project, and keyword filters. Browse your research through Library, Recent, and Map views.
An Evidence sheet for your reading
Review passages grouped by source, narrow by methods or other signals, and return to the PDF page. Copy evidence with citations and source links.
A library you can maintain
Review metadata repairs and duplicate candidates, track reading status, and export annotated reading notes as Markdown.
What the suite is for
Keep the source connected to the writing.
The 4.0 previews bring the two apps closer together, while keeping access and export under your control.
Optional AI connections
Connect compatible assistants such as Codex or Claude on Mac. Access is off by default; reading and making changes have separate permissions. Connected apps may send requested content to their providers.
Local work, clear choices
Libraries are stored locally and may sync through your iCloud account. Built-in generation uses Apple’s on-device model where available. Online metadata lookups contact research services. Review your privacy choices.
